Drill
A drill is an easy
and simple physical
exercise. It helps in the
physical development
of the body. Drills
include activities like
attention, stand-at-ease,
stand-at-rest, standing
in a queue and walking
in a queue. Let us enjoy drills as given below:
1. Attention
The state of alert in a drill is called
attention. In this position, we should
not move and talk. When we get the
command to be in attention, we raise
our left leg about half a feet up and
then keep close to the right leg. Our
hands should be straight down with
our legs.
2. Stand-at-ease
In this command, we should lift our
left leg up and then place about half
feet apart from the right leg. Both
hands should be kept at the back of
our body placing the right palm on
the left.

3. Stand-at-rest
In this command, we take a rest for a
while. It is done as stand-at-ease but
hands are kept straight on the sides.
4. Standing in a queue
In this command, we stand in straight
lines keeping equal distance among friends.
5. Walking in a queue
